Munster Rep Teams Update

The Munster Age Grade squads recently assembled in the University of Limerick for their second training camp of the season.

In early preparation for the Interprovincial Series 2012/13 the Munster Under 20, Under 19 and Under 18 schools took a full training session in what proved to be a very beneficial day to all.

Despite the testing conditions of wind and rain for most of the day, all the squads were put through their paces under the watchful eye of Feargal O'Callaghan (Head of Strength & Conditioning) ,Greig Oliver (Under 20 Head Coach), Keith Murphy (U19 Head Coach) and Niall McDermott (U18 Schools Head Coach).

In the morning, all squads did their fitness test, followed by a pitch session before a break for lunch. This followed a second pitch session before breaking to attend an excellent presentation by Munster Dietician, Graham Close. All players took a huge amount from Graham's informative session and look forward to maintaining a healthy diet throughout the season.

Munster Rugby would like to thank all the staff in the New Sports facility at UL for their help on the day.

The Level 1 course is for Head coaches working with 15 a side teams. The course deals with the Principles of Play by developing them through the use of Key Factor Analysis, applied to the Individual skills, mini-unit skills, unit and team skills. Full - Waiting List Available
